How to Choose a Blade for Hard Materials

Before ordering a diamond blade, consider these important points.

  • Material: Granite, porcelain, engineering brick and reinforced concrete have different cutting requirements. Choose a blade designed for the material.
  • Cutting performance: Match the blade to the demands of the job rather than assuming one blade will perform equally well on every material.
  • Machine compatibility: Check the blade diameter, bore and maximum permitted RPM against your machine.
  • Cutting method: Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for wet or dry cutting.
  • Blade wear: Using the correct blade for the application helps avoid unnecessary wear and poor cutting performance.

Using an unsuitable blade can lead to slow cutting, glazing, excessive wear or a poor finish. If you’re unsure which blade to choose, check the product specifications or ask us for advice.

Why Does Diamond Blade Selection Matter?

A diamond blade must be suited to the material it is cutting. For example, a blade suitable for granite may not be the best option for reinforced concrete, while a general-purpose blade may not provide the finish required for porcelain.

Matching the blade to the application helps you make a more informed choice and avoid spending money on a blade that isn’t suitable for the job.
